Grow Pittsburgh is now accepting applications for its Community Garden Sustainability Fund grants.  The deadline for applications is April 1.

Grants can be used for materials like compost, fencing and tools or technical assistance like consulting and educational programming.

The CGSF is a project of the Western PA Conservancy and Grow Pittsburgh that exists to provide material and technical assistance to established community food gardens in Allegheny County.

These include gardens managed by schools, community organizations, shelters, religious institutions and individuals. The Sustainability Fund supports projects that will improve or enhance gardens so that they may have a long-lasting positive impact as part of their communities. 

The program has been active since 2013, having supported 80+ community gardens with over $77,000 of materials.
